Lalgarh, West Bengal: Four CPI-M supporters, including a school teacher, were killed by suspected Maoists within a span of less than 24 hours in West Midnapore district's Lalgarh where joint security forces are on an anti-Maoist operation since June 19.
Kartick Mahato (38), a para-teacher in Jamda High School at Belatikri in Lalgrah, was shot dead this morning by six to seven motorcycle-borne extremists after barging into the classroom when he was taking a class. They even took away his motorbike.
A few minutes later, CPI-M's Salbani Branch office local committee secretary Sambhu Mahato was shot along with one of his associate Anadi Mahato while they were sitting in a roadside tea-stall at Burikarli allegedly by the extremists, the police said.
While Sambhu, a resident of remote Guripal village, died on the spot, his associate died in a local hospital.
Last evening, suspected Maoists killed Sheikh Bakul, a shop-keeper and CPI-M leader, at Aandaria bazaar in Binpur where he had gone to buy medicine.
The Maoists also allegedly kidnapped three other CPI-M leaders from Bankura, but their whereabouts were yet to be known.
